and if so what should president obama do? mort zuckerman. >> i think the president should not cut the support for the military in egypt. they are our most important ally, and it's the most important country in the middle east, and we will lose the support of a lot of our other friends if we walk away from egypt. they have done a tremendous amount of work with and for the united states. this is dramatically in our interest, even though we disagree with what they're doing. but comparing the military to the muslim brotherhood we're coming out way ahead in terms of our interest and the quality of government. >> there's another angle there. remember what eisenhower said? beware the military industrial complex. he's talking about the complex over here. we make all the munitions that that billion and a quarter is buying, correct? >> correct. >> so this affects american business. does that give another turn to this wheel of decision making that obama is operating? >> you can look at that way but egypt has been our most important ally
